October Fun!

While the weather didn't cooperate with "Fall," the festivities did. I bought all three babes Halloween chair backers, so most every morning there was a little something in it or we did something fun. Some highlights were going to the pumpkin patch, going to Irvine Park Railroad and riding the ponies, making pumpkin and ghost sugar cookies, having a Halloween party with all of our friends, and starting sports camp. Clayton and Chloe had so much fun and so did I! Easton was a trooper at all of the outings. We really talked wearing costumes up to the babes, so when it was time to put on their costumes, both Clayton and Chloe loved wearing them! All three looked so adorable. Clayton was Jake from Jake and the Neverland Pirates--he even wore his hat with hair, Chloe was Tinkerbell--she was precious and Easton was the sweetest little Peter Pan complete with a special hat knitted by his Grammie.

The highlight of our Halloween themed month was the Halloween party. When my brother and I were little, my parents threw a few parties in our garage with all of our friends. Those parties are some of my favorite memories. I decided this year, it was time to start the tradition again. My mom and I worked hard creating festive decorations and with the help of glorious Pinterest, games and food for the littles ones were inspired and created. While it was super windy that day, it was warm, so the backyard worked as the perfect party spot. Our backyard still needs lots of work, but it was the perfect stomping ground for all 22 toddlers! It was chaotic, but so much fun seeing all of the little ones in their costumes and playing so well with each other. We also had 5 sweet infants, 2 very pregnant mommies and about 40 adults. It was a full house, but that's one of my most favorite things about my new home is that there is plenty of room for creating memories like this!
